    You can configure an MX record within the appropriate zone in ZoneRunner and specify the target as the desired hostname of mail.messaging.microsoft.com.

They are synching the configuration ... and both of them are active as well...but with the single zone configuration inside the zonerunner...it is showing that GTM1 is the SOA Server...then if the GTM1 is down....will GTM2 still be able to resolve the MX record for internet clients?

As long as your service provider is configured to use both of your GTMs, queries to either one should work the same.
